Here is my Biscuit Cutters Woo Hoo! You know I have never owned Biscuit Cutters before. And now I can’t say that because I own some. Now I’m going to make an egg in the hole just like the Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond. I will blog it.

Biscuit Cutters

Check out this cool thing. It’s a Mini Measure-All Cup. It comes in 1 cup and 2 cups. This time I got the 1 cup. If it is like the picture that is where you would put the dry ingredients. Turn it over and that is where you would measure the wet ingredients.

Measure liquids and solids. A unique adjustable plunger design cleanly ejects solid ingredients. As written in the Pampered Chef book

Here is my Nylon Masher again this is something I never owned before. But now I do 🙂

This is a better picture so you can see how the holes look. I can’t wait to use it.

When I ordered these I did not notice that they came with lids. I guess I was just so excited for the 4 small bowls a 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz and 8 oz. I love them and I think the lids are adorable 🙂 I’m so happy I got them!

Pinch Bowl Set

Prep and store dry or liquid ingredients. Spouts help you easily pour liquid ingredients. Glass bowls and plastic lids nest to take up less space. Set of four in includes 1-oz, 2-oz, 4-oz and 8-oz. sizes with lids. Dishwasher-and freezer safe. Bowls are microwave-safe. This is out of the Pampered Chef book!

Here I put all the lids on and stacked them so you could see the large to small size.

One more picture of them stacked. I’m so excited to use them. They will work perfect for when I make Mac N Cheese. I put an egg in one, flour in one, salt and pepper along with any other spices I use at the time. It’s going to be lots of fun!

Fall is here so I added a little fall color to my dinning room. I will be adding more soon. So for now I put some leaves around my candles to add some fall colors to them and I think they are beautiful:)

Here is another look at them in more light and the fall colors look much brighter.

And here they are with the candles lite. So beautiful. Now keep an eye out for the change. It will be coming to these 😉 I just need to go shopping 😉 And that I love to do!

I added the fall green leaves on the top of my small bakers rack. It just adds a little something I love it!

I added some colorful fall leaves to this table. I have to tell you I just love this table I got it from my Sister-in-law. I’m so happy she redecorated her house. Now my house is beautiful!

Here it is with the candles lite. It just makes me smile 😉

Now here on my big bakers rack so far I have just added some fall leaves to the 2nd shelf. More to come 😉

Here is my dinning room with a little fall color added to it. I’m so excited to add more and I will keep you posted on that with an up coming blog. I thought it was so funny last week someone said that it looked like a French Bistro. Now that made me smile. I did that without even trying 😉 It just all went together!

With the Holidays coming I will be sharing for sure one recipe using this Cinnamon Plus Spice Blend. I can’t wait to show you. It will be an awesome dish to take to party’s. I would say it’s perfect for orderves. If you would like to get some I can help you with that. Plus it can be shipped right to your home.

Thank you for reading my blog. I hope you are able to get this awesome spice.

Here are the raspberries after I washed them. Then I pat them dry with a paper towel.

I keep my White Chocolate Chips in a mason jar after I open the bag. So then I take the raspberry and stuff it with 2 sometimes 3 white chocolate chips.

As I feel them with the white chocolate chips I set them up in a cute dish. Now I did see this on pinterest. And I had to try it and I have to tell you they are delicious 🙂 Something about the tartness of the raspberry and the sweet of the white chocolate just works. In a good way.

Here they are ready to eat. My girls loved them. And of course I love them too 🙂

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you try these and like them just like we did.

First I fry a pound or so of hamburger. I would fry some onions and garlic then put the hamburger in but I did not have an onion. So I started the hamburger and put in a 3 table spoons of minced garlic in it. And I used one of my skillets I bought from Sur La Table 🙂

Now this tool is an awesome little thing. It’s called a Mix N Chop! From Pampered Chef. I used to the help me in frying the hamburger. Oh yes and check out my skillet from Sur La Table it’s so easy to clean after use. I do let it cool down first. So it won’t warp.

Okay I’m very sorry I do not have a home-made spaghetti sauce. I have never made a home-made sauce. I would love to make one that I can get red of the acid so my family would eat it. Heart burn this is why! I love spaghetti so I make it now my girls might have a little but my husband and son will not touch it because of heart burn.

So anyways I used this sauce one of my favorites. And it was really good!

Then I put it all together. And let all the flavors marry. Now this is how my Mom would make it. Well she loves elbow macaroni and so do I. But my husband and girls like long string spaghetti. So this is how I make it 🙂

And to top it off I put Cheddar Cheese. And it was very yummy.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog. I hope you enjoyed it 🙂

We made a Salad on this Bamboo Platter. You can serve everything from vegetables and fruits to appetizers and desserts. the large Bamboo Platter is 18″ x 15″ x 1 1/4″. The Medium Bamboo Platter is 13 1/2″ x 10″ x 1″. We made a Strawberry salad on the Large Bamboo Platter and it was Delish 🙂 On the Bamboo Platter is the Chef’s Tongs and they are awesome. We used them toss the salad. We also used the handy scraper to gather the veg’s. for the salad. The Handy Scraper is that white thing on the Bamboo Platter. And it works great 🙂
